is there a search for story_id field in web interface? if not, want one?

is there a search for story_id field in web interface? if not, want one?

HI Brics

A job queue keeps getting stalled for a client. Reading the error message I see there are a bunch of stories that have problems (no related image, mostly not on a publish desk). Unfortunately the error message gives all story ids - which I can access in the database, but it would be so much better if that client could either

1. search for story by id in the search interface 2. the error message gave the url of the story

and

3. I don't think the whole job queue should be stopped just because a few stories don't publish.

I've been out of the bric discussion loop for a while - are any of these points above potential new features other's would like? I wish bric could be made a little more user friendly.

Hi Dawn,

The search-by-ID thing is already done and in the pipeline for 2.1.0. Greg added it during the hack day you hosted!

If the job is dying because of a common error (for example, because an expected related media document is not actually related), you can always trap for that in a template, and put all the useful information you want into the error message:

The latter, please.

Agreed. If that's the case, then something's wrong, either a bug or something in your configuration.
